Description
More than six years ago I did a group drawing of Sonic the Hedgehog characters from the video game series.Six years later we can see the same for the Sonic Archie comic series.
This drawing took me a whole week to complete (with my regular job at the casino and breaks in-between) - from sketch to the final base colours. I kept it plain and simple for more visual impact.
My love for this series seem to have no limit, I've been following the series closely for a very long time (can anyone spot Bivalve btw?)
Anyways here's wishing everyone a Happy New Year.
And to start it off here is another opportunity to get a free sketch request from me. This time I'll take 5 winners from deviantART and 5 from Bumbleking forums. All you gotta do is answer the following trivia:
The first five people* who answer the questions correctly will get a free doodle like this one: Good luck!
*Note: I'll pick at random 5 people who answered the question correctly.

I miss so many of these wonderful heroes! Why?! Why'd we have to lose them?!

I see you left out Hope, Athena, Aerial, Sonic's parents, Muttski, Archimedes, Dulcy, Matilda, and The Substitute Freedom Fighters, yet you included the Sand Blasters, whose reputations are as good as the Destructix and the Supression Squad.
But other than that, you've included a bulk of all the major characters. Quite impressive.

If the Substitutes are thrown in, you can omit that bastard Hamlin!

Could you do the same for the Fleetway heroes?

Why are the Sand Blasters here? You wouldn't really call them heroes. The Great Desert Dark Egg Legion act as a family and among them are Beauregard Rabbot, Bunnnie's dad, and Matilda the Armadillo, Mighty's sister.

I used to read this comic but after reading about all the characteriztion problems and stupid story elements, I stopped. I still like some of the concepts from the comics though and love SatAM.

Uhm... Manic and Sonia are not only freedom fighters, but they appeared in them comics once too. It was a crossover between Scourge/Anti Sonic, Zonic, MANY Sonic's... and yeah.

(I assume that contest is long over. But I love your concepts for Bunnie and Antoine.)
It's a very impressive giant cast pic. I love the little touches of character interaction, such as Barby and Bill's flirtatious looks, and Little Jon perched atop Rob's head. Heck, you even included Froggy and Cheese next to Big and Cream respectively. Nicole looks sweet too. Nanite Suit Rotor is just awesome, who cares if he's ripping off Tony Stark. What's he gonna do, advocate for a Mobian Registration Act?
I like seeing Mina's band and Ash get a little fandom love too. Elias, Silver, Larry, Shard, Harvey, Leeta, and Lyco look rather boss in your style too. And you really should be commended for including the Sandblasters. Jack in particular is obnoxious but they are technically Freedom Fighters and fit the group description. At least Jolt and Swift E. are funny.

Wow, you seem to know the series really well. How much of it do you know? Do you collect the comics? = )
Anyways thank you once again for the insightful commentary and Rotor being an advocate for a Mobian Registration Act? Hell yeah!

Yeah. I've been a fan of the series since I was little. I used to have a decent collection (including Knuckles comics) but lost them all a few years back, bad circumstances. I still keep up via the bumbleking forums, and various fan sites. The sheer longevity of the Archie series and Sonic fandom in general never ceases to amazes me. Like Pokemon, Nickelodeon, The Avengers, etc. Sonic seems to fit that special category of childhood hobbies you never truly outgrow.
I'm glad that there's still plenty of quality fan art for Sonic being created. I can remember how awesome it was when Dawn Best and Axer were working for the series because they were the earliest example of Sonic fans turning pro. And now we have Ian as head writer and Dub for Off Panel jokes. So maybe if you were to submit a portfolio to Archie you might join them someday. Already you've got a sizable gallery that demonstrates a broad range (multiple characters, backgrounds, and poses), speed, and consistency, all of which make for enjoyable comic book art.
Keep up the great work.

Interesting bit of history on your end there - thanks for sharing! = )
I've been really into it ever since after #195: Hedgehog Havoc - at that time Team Ian + Tracey + Paul were in and made the comic series a whole lot more awesome. I pretty much got all the comics up until now except for any rare titles like Sonic Super Specials.
I'll be submitting an Atmospheric Soundtrack to The Tails Adventure soon, but first I'm working on the cover art. Catch ya then!
